Stanley Cup playoffs, in the Vancouver Canucks win it (which they will) it will be the first time the cup has been won by a Canadian team since '93. Irony being that the team is captained by a Swede. Only twice before have teams won it with a non Canadian captain.

Of course when the Bruins win it will be with a Captain from Slovakia ( Zdeno Chara) but the alternate captains are Mike Recchi from Kamloops, BC and Patrice Bergeron is from Quebec. Might be some consolation. Bruins have a chance if Tim Thomas stays healthy and on his game, a magician in the net.

Note: I grew up in the Original 6 era and grew up thinking God Save the Queen was the second verse of the Star Spangled Banner. (I once knew the words too)

edited to add: Happy that Atlanta is moving to Winnepeg. The league will be healthier with more Canadian teams.
